Rich, your just pointing out the truth though.
Vauxsport n such will provide vastly more informative and true information than here.

chip is the man in the know. his arrogance is acceptable if you look past it at all the useful information and help he has given people over the years though.

im aware of Vauxsport and registered on there years ago.
I posted the question on here as i know Nic has possibly the best LET i know of. Also i hate Mig as its stupidly clicky, and a huge ego fest. Plus it has to be a "popular" vx for them to care.
I posted in here as i knew there was enough knowlege from ppl on here for what i wanted. Am not planning on building one, im interested in the subject. End of

Get a bike then if you want fun.
G-force and acceleration in a cars fun.
Hanging off the side of a bike at 120mph into a bend, getting from 0-100mph in well under 10 seconds, and 170+mph top end, for only £7k brand new is so much better 
Only issue is we look like power rangers. but women like a guy with a big tinted helmet

Arno knows everything about Motronic and Stefen who works with him at EDS
They were mapping cars with 120mm AFM off Audis on to the LET when I was there last !
They calibrate them through the RR fan!
